jjordan, for what it's worth, word from someone who's watched this stock a while, at this pt in time MU is a trading stock. You could buy long now but realize you'll probably be watching the sp play ping pong clear into beginning of 2016. At that time the dust will start settling from Win10 numbers and MU's new disruptive technologies will start showing numbers (3D NAND, XPoint, etc). If you buy now, knowing what I know, I'd be trading this ping pong game at least into the Fall of this year 2015. It's not going to get much cheaper than it is right now ($18). Plenty of upside for that. Go for it! Oh, and I'd forget the "Chinese buyout rumors". That's a negative for MU going forward. MU stands on it's own and will stay and American pride.

None of the MU writers and Analysts are saying Win10 gets MU over the hump. I've read some saying it will help us during this down year, that's all. I agree with that. From the latest news it also appears Win10 is for the most part being received well. This menu bar thing came up hear but haven't heard anywhere else. You h ave to remember Win10 isn't being bought by individual consumers but upgraded freely. And some consumers have been waiting for Win10 to buy new machines. But the real help for MU will be all the refreshes coming from the Corporate sector. True, revenue won't show until end of this year and next year but it's business MU can count on. That is, while we wait for 3D NAND, XPoint and the other exciting things.

You keep dodging the real question - you're crusader complex. Why do you stay on this MU msg bd?

Oh, and I am "concerned" but that's because, unlike you, I have a position in MU and only want out with a respectable profit by sometime next year. I'm just hanging on like a lot of folks here and all you do is raining on our hopes day after day! This long term time horizon gives you trouble because all you can talk about is the past and "the PC is dead". Serious computing devices are not dead and NO one knows the future of any investment for sure. That includes you cheetah. Please tell us why you're such a crusader. kg

I think MU's "beat up" is in a world of it's own, can't be compared to the beat up all stocks will go through if/when the correction comes. In that scenario anything you buy now will get hammered. After 7 years bull run, we're bound to see a major correction sooner than later. Bios are very expensive now but I THINK will do better than most during a correction. Hard to bank on it. Dunno. kg

I see. I was referring to toggling back to something acceptable, like Win7 which is what I use. I've never upgraded to Win8. Thx for the tip/warning. Shows I'll have to wait close to the end of the year before upgrading. By then maybe the old menu bar will be in.

I was away fly fishing my Hood Canal beach shoreline for Coho Salmon and Sea Run Cutthroat. Nailed 4 beautiful Silvers and 1 Sea Run which jumped 3 times! Did I mention the day before I sold VG for a nice $10K profit? Things are rolling for me! YeeHaa!!!

I've been away for a few days but upon first glance I don't see any news causing the sell off either. We've had excellent news this week with a nice rise followed by a dump at end of week! Could that much profit taking occurred? Perhaps something will reveal itself next week? Dunno. Long term anyway so not the slightest concerned. kg

Considering all the bad news is out with nothing but good news on its way, it's just a matter of timing. Would I buy this now and hold this just for 3 - six months when there's better prospects out there? Probably not. But beyond 6 months, MU's an excellent Long term play.

I haven't downloaded yet but from your report I'd say these things are user learning curve problems. Any new release full of em. Certainly not big enough problems for INTC & MU to be concerned about...
